Farmall 300 Power steering???

Mark Koran · Aug 13, 2012

I recently purchased a 1955 farmall 300 with a loader. I love it, but I'm curious if this model can be converted to power steering? Any ideas?

sure, add an eaton torque amplifier.

Power steering was an option on 300's. If you found a donor in a wrecking yard you could make a change over. I took the power steering from a 350 and put it on a 400 once. 300, 350, 400 and 450's would work. Char lynn also made a kit for Farmall's but you would need to find a used one.

If you buy the whole works for a factory type, Behlen torque generator, beware they are usually worn out and the flow divider valve is also worn. The seller isn't going to know that but it is a lot of work to put them on and then find out they don't work well as a whole lot of guys have found out from all the questions that have gone over this forum the last few years. I prefer the charlynn and a separate pump. That 300 has only 9 gpm pump and when you take first 3 gals for steering you don't have a lot left for a loader.
